Before you book
- What it costs
- £489 for a 12-yard skip, VAT included. You pay by card when you book online. Further out it costs a little more: the booking page shows your price from your postcode.
- What's included
- Delivery, collection, 10 days' hire and licensed disposal, with a waste transfer note.
- Who loads it
- You fill it at your own pace, level with the rim. This size takes light waste only: no soil, rubble or hardcore. No batteries, vapes or battery-powered electricals. Arrange separate disposal.
- When we come
- Booked Monday to Friday, except bank holidays, from the next working day. A road skip waits for the council licence, which we apply for. Monday skip deliveries must be booked before 12 noon on Friday (UK time). The coming Monday is unavailable after that and over the weekend.
- What could cost extra
- Extra weeks are £60 each. A road permit is priced on enquiry, and we confirm the cost before you book. Banned items found in the skip are left on site or charged at the disposal rate.
- After you book
- Pay by card when you book online, through Stripe's secure checkout, and your confirmation comes by email. There's no need to call us. Free to cancel until 4pm the working day before; after that £42, or £60 once the lorry has left.

Tap a few answers about the job and add a photo or two. We come back with an estimate by phone, text, WhatsApp or email, usually the same working day.
- A photo is the quickest way to an accurate estimate.
- The estimate is based on what you tell us and your photos. If the job turns out different on the day, such as more waste or harder access than described, we agree any change with you before we start.
- No obligation, and nothing to pay until you book.
- Awkward access, mixed waste or a job that isn't on the list: this is the form for it.
Questions people ask
How long can I keep a 12-yard skip?
10 days are included. Extra weeks are £60 each, added when you book or later by text.
Can I overfill it?
No. Skips must be level with the rim to be lifted legally. If it's heaped, we'll level it off and leave the excess, or you can book a second skip.
What can't go in a 12-yard skip?
Batteries of any kind, vapes and battery-powered electricals; asbestos, tyres, gas bottles, fridges and freezers, paint and chemicals; and plasterboard mixed with other waste (bag it separately). Gas bottles can't go in the skip, but we can take them separately: tell us and we'll quote by type. Soil, rubble and hardcore can't go in this size because of the lorry's weight limit; choose 8-yard or smaller.
Can batteries go in a skip?
No. No batteries of any kind in skips, skip bags or containers, including batteries hidden in electrical items. Household and car batteries, lithium packs, power-tool batteries, e-bike batteries and vapes must be kept out. Batteries can cause fires when damaged or crushed. See battery recycling and separate collection options.
Can you collect batteries separately?
Contact us before booking or loading them. Send the battery type, quantity, condition and postcode, and say whether they are from a home or business. We will confirm whether a suitable separate collection can be arranged and agree any price first. It is not included in skip hire. Do not leave batteries beside the skip for the driver without an agreed separate collection. Ask us about batteries.
Can heavy waste go in a skip larger than 8 yards?
No hardcore, soil, rubble, concrete, bricks or other heavy waste in standard skips above 8 yards. 10–16 yard skips are for light bulky waste only. For heavy waste, ask us about a suitable 2–8 yard skip and its loading limit.
Can I book Monday delivery over the weekend?
Monday skip deliveries must be booked before 12 noon on Friday (UK time). The coming Monday is unavailable after that and over the weekend.
When do I pay?
Booked online, you pay by card there and then, through Stripe's secure checkout, and your confirmation comes by email. For a quoted job, or a booking made with our office: Payment is taken by card when we confirm your booking, by phone or a secure payment link. Trade accounts are invoiced monthly on 14-day terms once agreed in writing.
Are you licensed?
Yes. LM Waste Management Ltd holds Environment Agency upper-tier waste carrier licence CB/DU308513, carries £10m public liability insurance and issues a waste transfer note for every job, or a hazardous waste consignment note where the law needs one.
